CDs and DVDs tend not to last long in my house… but since I just fling them in a pile in the cupboard, that’s entirely my fault. The Sanwa CD-RE1AT might be just the ticket, though: it works on 8cm or 12cm CDs, DVDs and BDs. With a push of a button it removes dust, fingerprints and “oily spots” from discs, and with the “repair” button it solves skipping problems and coats the discs with a protective layer, without grinding. Available now for US$79. If only it found missing CD case inserts too, it’d be perfect. [Akihabaranews]
